Reset the idle to a more comfortable point, around 775-800.

Took it out for a test drive. Holy sh*t! This car is making a tooooon more power than it was. I was literally pushing myself back in the seat when it was pulling. Never did that with even the modified TPI setup. It's amazing the difference. I did a rolling start at 30 mph in 3rd gear and chirped the tires. That has never happened before. I know it's not in my mind, either. I am so impressed by this intake. I wish I had done it way earlier.

One new problem has popped up though. Now the trans is slipping over 4000 rpm under heavy throttle. Never did that with the old setup. I think this one is making so much more power it's overpowering it. I took some videos and I'm going to upload them in to a tech thread. We'll see.

Despite the trans issue, I still have a monster smile on my face
